Spectra open bow?

With all the work you will be putting into it you could always put full stringers in it! Looks like a fun project.

Spectra 20 Open Bow

My .02 cents. It's a project boat as stated in the add. Definitely would be a nice family boat. No on the big power, it's only a 1/4 stringer. This hull was never designed for big power or high speeds. Yes on being a safe boat. If your up for a big project and want a nice, fun family boat, drop a pump and a big block in this, maybe some paint and some interior and have fun. I think the price is more than fair if this is what you want, just be sure you understand the task you're taking on.

Ya it's definitely a builder!!! Lol seems like the projects are always a good price especially when you don't have the cash to fork out for a fairly new boat all ready to go. I guess i could put the 460 out of my sleek into it. Its close to 500 hp and could put my 521 into my sleek. Just need a more lake style boat for the family and make my sleek the racer. Not afraid of work been building mine for five years.
